Herscu was born in Bucharest, Romania. He and his family moved to Israel in 1961 and subsequently relocated to the United States in 1969. Herscu was naturalised in 1975 and earned an N.D. in 1986 from the National College of Naturopathic Medicine.

Herscu is a classical homeopath; his major influences have been Samuel Hahnemann, James Tyler Kent, Baron Clemens Maria Franz von Boenninghausen, Constantine Hering, and Adolf von Lippe.[1]

Herscu has written several books, and has published articles in major homeopathic journals.

In the late 1980s, Herscu helped to revitalize and recreate the Homeopathic Academy of Naturopathic Physicians. In 1989, he and his wife Amy Rothenberg founded the New England School of Homeopathy. In 1991, he began publishing the New England Journal of Homeopathy. Herscu teaches at a number of leading schools of homeopathy around the world and maintains a private practice in Enfield, Connecticut.
